yeah i just avoid EA games out of habit for a multitude of reasons, i own 2 games on EA/Origin and both of them are not made by EA but published by them and i run them on a windows VM just because i cba to deal with their crappy launcher

I have 10 dollars on Amazon and the only games that are good and cheap are from EA

just dont be surprised if their launcher breaks or require you to remake the prefix if the game is bought through origin (instead of steam) i think you should use lutris, otherwise use steam

Just out of pure curiosity since I found it accidentally, is it better to use Bazzite's TDP settings or stick with SimpleDeckyTDP?

How to tell if I'm using nvk or the proprietary drivers?
HikariKnight

by the image name? bazzite/bazzite-gnome <-- opensource drivers (nvk/amd/intel) bazzite-nvidia/bazzite-gnome-nvidia <-- nvidia drivers

every out of tree module will taint the kernel (proprietary drivers, staging drivers, out of tree modules, using certain hardware configurations, etc)
